I'm still waiting for activation of my question in the Armbian forum ...
Other entries I found are really old and are pointig to totaly other setups.

In the meantime I tested CoreELEC.
Nightly, with kernel 5.15 did not work. And because there is no issue tracker on github abd the forum is closed I'm unable to do more investigation.
Stable 21.3 (kernel 4.9.nn) works as expected after setting "gpiopower=479" in /flash/config.ini
Hardware accelaration seems to work too.

Hello,

I'm not familiar with python but I don't see anything about poweron in this script.
And shutdown is not the problem, because it can be done via remote.

But how to power on the N2 with the GPIO button?
This is usually done via adding entrys to boot.ini ....

Found some Infos when using CoreELEC elsewhere

``````´´# set gpiopower in /flash/config.ini
# Power Off and Wake Up using GPIO Key Button
# Valid options for Odroid N2/C4 are 476,477,478,479,480,481,483,484,485,486,487,488,489,490,491,492
gpiopower=479

But how to get it work on an N2+?

The LibreELEC wiki has infos about adding entry's when using a RasPi
https://wiki.libreelec.tv/configuration/config_txt

Of course, when running a N2+ there is no config.txt to modify ,,,,

So finally the question is how to get a gpio power switch recognized?
